I think understanding each issue makes sense. Then you can trace each issue into their side effects. It’s possible that the issues have a common side effect that can be addressed with a single solution.
For example, unequal understanding of career possibilities is a common side effect. I had a favorite class in middle school where a professional (in my case an accountant) would come to our class every two weeks to teach us about their profession.
I think many more members of the tech community should do the same. Furthermore, they should serve as ongoing contacts for the kids such as providing opportunities for internship, for tech presentations, etc...
We need to do this not just for the urban poor but increasingly for the rural poor as well.
